Men wore things higher, tighter and showed more skin...man, I miss those days....and those Adidas shorts!
Men unabashedly showed off lots of skin and wore spandex. Everyone was doing aerobics and getting into 'jogging'.
The Crystal Light Aerobics Championships were a BFD:
John Travolta was young and hot:
And the Glam Rock bands showed off lots of bulge and ass.
And, of course, I would never forget an homage to Undergear and International Male, two catalogs that got me through my lonely, isolated teens....
I miss how everyone was more (apparently) liberated and less prudish about the beauty of the male body. It was a fun decade, we liked that we didn't take ourselves too seriously like we have for the past couple of decades.
The last picture is of Rusty Joiner, who was born in 1972. I suspect the picture is from the past five or so years, and from the International Male/UnderGear site and/or catalogue.
ReplyDeleteThe pic of Rusty was just posted as an example of what could be found in the Undergear catalog. It was hard to find older images through a Google pic search.
